The Ride,Building Camp in the Dark

So the fellas are off for a weekend of camping in Flintstone,Maryland. The ride started out at out the outdoor world where my buddy Chaz and I were waiting for the two other guys Josh and Aaron to arrive in which they both probably had some type of story to tell the wife in order to go but we wont get into that.So in the mean time me and chaz went into the store and tied up the loose ends needed for the trip.So now we are riding and its going to take a couple hours so i got comfortable and turned the ipod up. About half way there we hit traffic for about 20 minutes as it started to rain. As we approach we see an accident off to the side and police were directing traffic into one lane on I70 what a joke.We finally arrive at the destination but not really because now we have to take the ATVs  and the gear that we needed for the night because it was going to take more than a couple trips to go a quarter mile UP the mountain.  So we get to the site and dig a hole for the fire pit to cook some grub and get some heat. The next move was to find a semi flat piece of land since were on the side of a mountain to pitch the tents and catch some much needed zzzz's

  1. Thanks for reminding me that I have a bunch of camping equipment I haven't had a chance to use in at least two years. I'm hoping to take a trip to Assateague to camp on the beach next spring.

    Hope you stayed somewhat dry over the weekend.
